Oh, it's been beat for certain, there are folks out there who have 240 + countries using the NASWA list. I'm a mere piker. Wish I'd stuck with the hobby through the 70's, but I was busy doing other things at the time. I got back into it around 1982 or so. Ace, Congrats on the new country ! I only have about 60 countries QSL'd (veried, for those in Glendale) LOL couldn't resist mentioning that. Ace, did you happen to attend the ANARC convention in Montreal 1982 ? we probably met,talked with alot of DX'ers from all over that weekend , Frank I didn't go to the one in Montreal in '82 but did attend one there some years later. I think the first one I attended was Milwaukee in '85? I went to ANARCON in Montreal in '86. I just dug out my packet of the handouts. I don't remember that one, that's the year that I met my future wife and kind of dropped out of SWL'ing. Was it held at the Radio Canada building ? It was at the Holiday Inn - Place Dupuis. We did visit Radio Canada. in '82 the convention itself was at Radio Canada, got to meet Jonathan Marks of R Nederland and won a R.Sweden t-shirt during the auction on the last day, good memories........... Jonathan was at Milwaukee in 1985. I did get my 40th Anniversary edition of the WRTH signed by Jens Frost, Glenn Heffernan, Andy Sennitt and Larry Magne. Guess that must've been in Toronto. Oh yeah, at one of them, either Montreal or Toronto, got to meet Arthur Cushen (MBE) and his wife Ralda, that was quite a thrill. Both are now deceased, listening with the Great Spirit. |

Pridnestrovie - Voice of Russia
QSL (verie, for those in Glendale) received today.
dxAce wrote: I just received an email from the Voice of Russia regarding a reception report that I sent yesterday for their 0100 transmission on 9665. This transmission is via Grigoriopol which is in the sort of breakaway region of Pridnestrovie which under NASWA rules counts as a seperate country rather than Moldova. VOR indicates that a QSL will be sent and states that my report is correct. This will be my 223rd NASWA country QSL'd (veried, for those in Glendale). A happy day! For those interested, the current NASWA country list can be had by going he http://www.naswa.net/images/NASWA_country_list.pdf |
